Who regulates how these will be used? Those who claimed for plasma TVs and swimming pools of course!

Well I'm convinced, how about you?

And who will the data be sold on to? Insurance companies? Superstores?

A positive aspect will be the number of black market gangs ( or for the politically correct amongst us, non conformist innovation teams) who will produce and sell for a few quid some shiny new false number plates for anyone who wants them.

FFS, This scheme will only serve the purpose of INVENTING NEW CRIMES for the police to cope with whilst not reducing crime by one iota.

Another step in the onwards march of the New Labour jackboot.

Ah, but don't forget that 'invention a new crime' has the potential to 'solve that new crime' and make the stats look a lot better.

A rather random set of ANPR cameras have appeared on the A15 near Market Deeping, not speed related and no mention in the local papers.

I think the police use the if you're not doing anything illegal arguement a bit too much these days, and Jacqui (ex School Teacher treats us like kids) Smith sounds like white noise to me. Afterall too many innocent people seem to have their lives looked into these days and not enought crims are deterred from committing crimes.

Most of the dodgy cars passing the points will probably be from Eastern Europe or be cloned.

So, now "they" will (or shortly will) be;

tracking you as you drive
tracking your emails
tapping your phone
following your movements in and out of the country via your bio-metric passport
watching you on CCTV as you walk around
monitoring what you buy (via your credit card and those electronic thingys that seem to be attached to everything)

But, of course, you have nothing to fear if you are a law abiding citizen! That is, until they change the laws!!

Watch out, there are terrorists under the bed, or is that reds??

Buy a tent, buy a pushbike, work cash in hand and do what the ffuk you want to do. Jack Reacher he's my hero!
